bump!
Really sorry to hear about your troubles.
I'm in Rawcliffe, so will keep a look out. My GF works in the city and I'll get her to keep her eyes open too.
Good luck
Bummer. I'm west of York & will keep my eyes peeled.
How did they get nicked?
Will keep an eye out! Were these taken from your house?
Jeez thats a proper bummer, is it just me or does this sort of thing seem more commonplace just lately? Sign of the times perhaps?
Thanks everyone, very much appreciated. They were stolen from my secure store in the back yard. It seems whatever you do to protect your stable, scum will always find a way.
Update:
Form a local source, one of the Rocky's has been spotted still in York and being ridden. The stolen bike(s) could possibly be linked to the travler comunity in York.
If your based in the York area please keep your eyes out. Any additional info would be great.
If any of my bikes are seen, please call the police straight away.
Many thanks
Would be worth contacting stolen bikes york facebook and twitter.
And local shops.
Similar story with a friend last year, all 3 of the bikes turned up at Water Lane site on Clifton Moor.
Hope you have a similar result in the end.
I saw one of the tramps that sit around all day drinking near my office riding around on a nice Kona hardtail, will keep an eye out to see if one of them has any of them!
Already done singlespeed_shep. Within a day on them going, all local shops notified, on facebook and have them all posted on stolen cycles york.
Apart from that just keeping my ears to the ground and eyes wide open.
Thanks again all for keeping a watch out.
